Hello!
My name is Sarah Nason. I am an Alberta-based scientific illustrator, writer, and wildlife biologist.
I started Wapiti Studios because I believe nature is for everyone, and I see an important role for communicators to bridge the gap between scientists and society. I am also passionate about “off the shelf” science: getting research into the real world where it can be applied for the greater benefit of all people. Through my art and writing I strive to make the natural sciences exciting, accessible, and impactful.
Illustrations bring science to life.
Humans naturally engage with visual information. I use illustrations, figures and artwork to help people connect with and understand scientific findings!
Great writing helps messages land.
Clear, concise writing can be the key to translating scientific research into real world action, whether it’s in policy or on-the-ground ecosystem management. I develop written products to help bridge these worlds, often working with collaborators and integrating research and visual components into the final products to ensure goals are met.
